A surface solution for high producing wells
With its flexible, modular design, the Bulk Desander can be modified to accommodate a wide range of customer specifications. Specifically designed for high flow capacity, the Bulk Desander is primarily used in offshore surface applications, during production from high producing wells. It can also be deployed on fields with multiple solids producing wells.

The Bulk Desander
Remove solids between 20 micron to 10mm from a liquid or gas medium. Utilising multiple cyclones, which can be used simultaneously or separately depending on the production needs.
Digital now
Using machine learning algorithms, the operational solids database provides the Bulk Desander’s control system with predictive capabilities for managing well performance across multiple wells. Truly bringing solids management into the smart, digital age.

Smarter choices
Designed for use on fields with multiple solids producing wells, the Bulk Desander can utilise its integrated sensors to capture data across multiple wells simultaneously. This can identify trends quickly and facilitate better decision-making.

The economic choice
If not managed effectively, sand production results in production losses. The Bulk Desander actively alleviates issues associated with sand production to boost improved production, while limiting project costs and Personnel on Board (POB).
